Cluster pays and the Fortune Frog

The way in which this game pays is however typically the same as the other slots of this style. Get four or more of the same symbols touching horizontally or vertically in a cluster and you’ll create a winning combination.

After a win the symbols that make up the winning combo, will be replaced by more symbols. There’s no cascades here, but you still have the possibility of consecutive wins from a single spin.

And this is where the Fortune Frog feature can help.

Each winning symbol on a single real money spin (this includes the consecutive wins) are added to the Fortune Frog meter to the bottom right of screen.

Fill that meter up with 33 symbols and you’ll trigger one of four features which will be randomly chosen:

Croak: 1 symbol set is chosen to pay as scatters

Spawn: 1 symbol set transforms into another symbol

Tongue: 2 edges are chosen and the symbols between are transformed in to another symbol

Hop: 1 symbol is randomly chosen which then transforms and destroys adjacent symbols

These are features that in our experience don’t show up that often but can help create even more wins. Plus you’ll have to trigger this feature to reach the Super Charge Feature.

Get 88 symbols to trigger the Super Charge

If from the random bonus you get for triggering the Fortune Frog meter continues to provide wins and you get up to 88 you then trigger the Super Charge.

Here all wins you continue to get in this round will be multiplied by 5 offering the chance for more impressive wins.

It’s hard to do, and even though we played for over an hour on this casino game when writing this review we never managed to trigger this feature. But that’s ok cause the Seasons bring with them the wild wins.

The Mahjong 88 Slot and its Four Seasons

There are four Seasons to this Mahjong 88 game, which not only brings with each one a different background but also a randomly triggered wild feature and additional bonus.

You start with Spring and then randomly you’ll move on to Summer, Autumn and Winter within 25 to 99 spins.

During each season a Season Bonus will be added to each win you get rewarding you when you move on to the next season.

Not only that but during your spins in that season that seasons bonus can randomly trigger potentially creating some more wins.

Spring: up to 12 wilds can randomly appear across the grid

Summer: up to 5 wilds can appear and destroy adjacent symbols

Autumn: up to 11 wilds show up and symbols turn wild or destroyed from the edges

Winter: up to 4 wilds appear and stay sticky on a win

You could in theory experience all four seasons within 100 spins but in reality will be at least over 300 base game spins to see what the full potential of this game has to bring.

Review Conclusion: Mahjong 88 Online Slot

Grid slots are becoming more and more popular as ways to re-invent slots and Play’n GO have certainly tried to do that in this Mahjong 88 slot machine.

It’s a real money slot that might not appeal to everyone, the tiles and floral design do make it more old-fashioned tending to provide the older generation of players or those who enjoy the game an alternative.

However a 0.10 minimum bet which head up to 100 per spin offers all players the chance to at least take a look at what this game offers.

With a 96.62% return to player rate and high volatility, you might see some frequent wins thanks to the cluster pays but the wins don’t tend to be on the high side often.

You’ll have to budget wisely to experience all four seasons and all four Fortune Frog bonuses that’s for sure.

This is for players who like a little risk, like the game of Mahjong and have the patience to play for hours.

For us it’s a good concept but lacks the excitement that some of their other video slots provide like their Imperial Opera and Matsuri slots.
